《Deck of Cards》Xeeht
Advertisement
"Yes. Be careful. I am still here."is said by a man judging from his low and smooth voice.
As for the group, they immediately look around everywhere, looking for the person, who said it, but can't find anyone else beside them here.
"Where are you. Show yourself!"Walther yells and draws his sword.
"Here I am."he says and then just appears out If thin air at the center of the floor. He is a man who looks to be in late twenties with handsome face. His eyes are dark yellow and his long black hair tied into a low ponytail. He is about 1,9m tall and seems to have a regular body build. He is wearing black clothing, which looks like something a thief or an assassin would wear. He almost could pass as a human, If he didn't have two small horns growing out of his forehead and his skin wasn't dark gray.
"Demon!"Walther yells out and hearing the word 'Demon' everyone else draws their weapons, beside Echo. He also gently pushes Skyezas left arm down, which is holding her bow.
"The bow will be useless. Don't bother with it."Echo tells her in a low voice. Hearing him, she nods and puts the bow away.
'He doesn't seem to want to kill us, so why is he here.'
"You guessed correctly, human. I am a demon and go by a name Xeeht."he says in a calm voice.
"Well Xeeht....Time to die!"Walther yells the last part and dashes towards Xeeht, only to get kicked to the side before he could reach him and fly into the wall.
"Holy shit. Walther!"Chris yells out, as he looks at Walther, whos body falls off from the wall and hits the ground. From here, they could see his body that wasn't moving. Was he dead or unconscious? That was something they didn't know.
"Listen to people first, before talking."Says Xeeht as he kicks the rushing Chris to the opposite side of Walther. He too flies into the wall, falls down, but unlike Walther, he moves a little, but doesn't seem to get up.
"Now then. Anyone else wish to learn a lesson?"he asks them, while looking at them. None of them dared to attack, because two of their strongest fighters were just dealt with a single hit. So what fucking chance would they have against him.
"Good. Then allow me to finish my instruction. My name is Xeeht and by my Mistress's wishes, I have come here, to evaluated the heroes for her. Now then-."he is cut of as he disappears and appears in front of Mari"A [Blade Dancer] with average skills. Too boring."he says and flicks her forehead, knocking her out.

Most of the group here now are frozen from fear and can't move their body or say anything. They don't know what to do now. Skyeza, who is also afraid, is clinging to Echo, who pushes her behind his back to protect her. Echo himself isn't afraid of him, but he doesn't need to be kicked into the wall to and so stays quiet, while staring at him.
"Arc mage with ice magic. Slightly useful, but still boring."Xeeht says, before bitch slapping the boy do hard that he is send flying and lands ten meters away from his original spot.
'Fucking hell. He is crazy powerful. I need to get Sky out of here.'
Echo thinks of a plan quickly and summons one of the cards into his hand and slips it into her pocket.
"Hmm. A [Controller]. Hmmm. That is an interesting class. I like it."he tells to Mathew, the kid who was bullied, but not anymore. Xeeht grabs Mathews face and kisses his cheek, before pushing him onto the ground.
"Hmm. Taste was pretty meh, but that can be changed in the future."Xeeht says and moves onto Jack, who he just kicks in the nuts and says"Too much muscles. Gross."
'Great. A gay demon.'
He keeps going to a person-to-person, until he reaches to Echo and says"Well well well. What do we have here. A class that I have never heard of and those titles." Xeeht places his hand onto Echos cheek and says"Tell me... Who were those one hundred innocent people you killed to earn the title [Killer]. Hmm. Who were they Echo?"
Xeeht moves his face closer to Echos and asks"Who were they? Tell me or I'll kill one of your comrades. Maybe the Blade Dancer it one of the Arc Mages."
"Then kill them. I don't give a shit about them."Echo says in a serious tone, while Xeeht is looking into his gray eyes.
"You're telling the truth. But the elf is a different story. Isn't it?"Xeeht says and immediately sees up close how Echos face turns angry.
"Ooh. That's your weakness. Good. Good. Now be a good boy and tell me?"Xeeht says and suddenly Echo feels a sharp pain in his stomach.
He blinks a couple of times, before head butting Xeeht into the nose and kicking him away. Echo looks at his stomach, to see a dagger sticking out of there and a lot of blood around the wound.
"Even though you have been stabbed, you seem fine."Xeeht says and he wipes the blood off from his face. While looking at the blood in his hand, he says"So you actually managed to hurt me. Good. Good. It's a shame that I have to kill you now."

After saying that, a sword appears out If nowhere into his right hand.
Echo who can't pull out a dagger, tries something that could work. He summons one of his cards and throws at Xeeht, who catches it. He looks at the card and says"It's a nice card. But really. A card. That's all you got."
"Yep. [Random Teleport]."
"Wh-"Xeeht disappears before he could finish a word and Echo collapses immediately after that.
"Echo!!!"Skyeza screams out, as he catches his body and gently places it on the ground. Tears start running from her eyes, as he looks at him, whos veins have turned black.
"Move."says Evelyn to Skyeza as he crouches next to him and puts her hands onto his chest.
"When I say so, pull the dagger out of his stomach. It is poisoning him."Evelyn tells Skyeza, who nods. Evelyn now takes a few deep breath, before chanting [Great Heal].
"Now."she tells her and Skyeza pulls the dagger out of his stomach. The black veins start to turn back to their original blue colour and the wound is slowly closing. After a minute, he is completely healed, but unconscious.
"He will be okay. Now we only need to wait."Evelyn tells Skyeza, who is giving Echo a lap pillow. Skyeza doesn't say anything and just nods, while looking at her beloved.
As for Xeeht, he appeared in a throne room made out of marble. He looks around a few seconds, before realising where he is. And when he does, he begins to laugh.
"Hahaha. That kid. He actually got me. Hahaha."His laughing is interrupted by a females voice"Why are you laughing in my throne room and how did you get here?"
"Sorry Mistress."Xeeht says and immediately kneels down onto the floor.
"Your loyal Xeeht, would like to give his report."
"Proceed."she says, while looking at him with his cold pink eyes.
"Thank you Mistress. Like you had ordered me, I had gone to the dungeon, where the heroes were and evaluated them. The Legendary Hero isn't nothing special currently and most of the group is pretty weak. But there were two, who caught my eye. One was a boy who could control living beings and the other is hard to describe."
"If it is hard for you to describe, then he must be interesting. Tell me about him as much as you know!"She orders him and so he follows her orders"He was summoned here as a hero like the other, but unlike the others, he has a title [Killer]. This means that he has killed innocent people before becoming a hero and even his title has changed from Hero to Anti-Hero. He also doesn't seem to care about the other heroes, but cares about his lover. And finally his other title."
"Which is?"
"[The White Demon]. A human who is called as a demon must be very interesting."
"That is interesting to an extend, but now tell me how you suddenly appeared here, If you can't use [Space Magic]?"
"He teleported me here, by using[Random Teleport], but when I looked at his status, he didn't have [Space Magic] nor any magic."
"Hoo. He actually may be entertaining."She says and gets up from her throne and walks down the steps.
She has smooth beez skin, pink eyes and hair. She has hour glas figure and both of her breasts and butt are big. She is wearing a red slutty dress, that shows her 'assets' a lot.
"You did well."She says and lifts Xeeht head. "As a reward, you may kiss my foot."
"Thank you Mistress."Xeeht says and gently kisses her right foot quickly, before it is pulled off by her.
"Leave. I want to be alone."she says and walks back up to her throne. She sits down and watches Xeeht exiting the throne room and once he is out, she says"Reviy."
"Yes Madam."is said by naked human girl, who appears next to her.
"The usual."
"Thank you Madam."
Back to Echo, he wakes up after an hour and the first thing he sees, is Skyeza big breasts, above his head.
"What a great view."he says jokingly to her.
"Aah. You're awake."she notices after hearing his words and immediately hugs him.
"Yeah."he says and hugs her back.
After they stop hugging, he gets up and feels kinda weak. He looks around the place, and sees the other people resting around the place or helping others.
"Where's the dagger?"he asks from clinging Skyeza, who replies"I have it. Do you want it?"
"Yeah. I need to return it."

Join Elaine as she travels around Pallos, discovering all the wonders and mysteries of the world, trying to find a place where she belongs, hunting those elusive mangos, all while the ominous Dragoneye Moons watch her every move. Hey! Beneath the Dragoneye Moons is my first writing effort, so please be kind, but don’t hesitate to point out the flaws. The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but it gets there! I’m going to be posting M-W-F I do know how the story ends, and I promise if it ever gets dropped, or I stop doing this, I will post the ending. There will be no random “this is the last chapter” out of the blue. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
